Visited Sonoma several times this past year, and absolutely never went away disappointed! They offer a Chef's Dinner (the chef prepares an entree of his chosing-if you like surprises & eat just about anything, this is fun)-you get the REAL DEAL-the Chef, serving your plate at your table, he explains what he's prepare for you and chats a bit! (We ask for Chef Kris) this is a personalized, friendly touch with a feeling of priority, and delight, unlike any other restaurant I've visited! Appealing menu dishes, but also amazing tasty "Chef Specials" weekly-so it's not the boring same-old menu dishes to pick from everytime you visit! Tapas menu choose 3-4 items for a little taste of everything.! Everything is of Satisfiable portions-freshly prepared tasting-always! Desserts are to die for-if you have room for. Wine list is huge, Servers are a bit pushy on high end wine prices, but very helpful with selections. Just tell them what price range your into. If the place is not over-crowed, service is excellent, attentive & friendly. If it's crowed, a bit slow- 1/2 wait for your dinner to arrive.. so be prepared. Call for reservations- Convience of small parking lot next to building, and also Marriott Hotel next door services the Sonoma for at door valet parking. Upper Penn Ave. block near Convention Center & by hotels. Atmosphere comfortable, upscaleish but not (Mortons Steakhouse) stuffy-, allows for dressy Casual attire.
Pros: Thumbs UP-5 STAR CHEFKRIS-great food- Extensive Wine list-Good parking convience
Cons: Slowish Service if busy-
